Set Construction Crew at the Warehouse this Weekend
Saturday, October 16 – 11am-3pm
Sunday, October 17 – 1pm-6pm
EVERYONE IS NEEDED – THERE IS STILL MUCH TO DO!
All set construction committee members are expected to participate for the remaining weekends. We are happy to have anyone else join us!
The Set Construction Committee works every Saturday and Sunday at the e.T.c. warehouse - 850 East San Carlos Ave, San Carlos, CA 94070.
Make a difference in your child’s show! Actors always enjoy bragging that "my mom painted that" or "my dad built that" or "my brother and I helped make that". eTc is all about the ‘family experience’ – come be a part of the fun without having to be onstage! No experience necessary – just safe shoes (flat with closed-toes) and comfortable clothes that can get dirty. Everyone is welcome, even if you are not on the committee, and you'll get credit toward those volunteer hours!
So bring your power tools, paint brushes, gloves, etc!!!! Oh, and please remember to sign in and out to get credit for your volunteer hours!!

Nitty Gritty Day – October 17, 2010

There is a lot of work to be done. Following are the general assignments that will be happening that day. Regardless of what committee you are on, you should come to the warehouse at 1pm (or as soon as you drop off your actor).
Publicity – Helping distribute posters around the community from Menlo Park to San Bruno as well as bundling the flyers for school distribution.
Props – Helping gather props for the show

Set Construction – Parents who can help with building the sets, detail painting and rigging the sets for hanging.

Then we will bring it all to the theater and begin installing all the pieces. We only have the theater from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. If you are available, please be at the warehouse by 8 a.m. Bring your gloves and screw gun.
Sign Up This Weekend at College Park:
Chaperone Duties: Signing up for at least one of the tech rehearsals and at least 2 of the shows mandatory to get an idea of the flow of the show and which groups are needed during which scenes. Each chaperone shift counts at 4 hours towards your volunteer goal.
